Another editor that I have enjoyed for quite some time now is TeXShop. There
is a native OS X version availlable and it can view PDF files as well. I run
TeXShop and terminal and am able to be quite efficient with it as TexShop
will watch the .pdf file and redisplay it as it is updated much like gv
under X11. Also usefull if you use LaTex.
    I have not been able to get "point and click" to work but to be honest I
haven't tried too hard. I work mostly on small files and have gotten into
the habit of commenting the files for bar numbers so it isn't that hard to
find your way around the file.
